Chapter 386 - 'Friend, Secretary Gao, The Unbreakable Sword, lend me your efforts; I have come to help President Feng, not to bury myself.”
Having a clue of what Gao Fan has got in his hands, Qi Shuai has also rushed to Feng Shufen's office. Not because he loved to be nosy in his love story rather it was because his friendship for the man was too strong to leave him alone in his burning anger. And today too, knowing that his friend was down with anger, he could not leave him alone to take any reckless decision.
Rushing in his office, he heaved a sigh when heard Gao Fan mention that the story was yet to begin. Putting a chilled smile on his face he looked at his friend and made his way to his desk to take the seat across him. But just when he downed himself on the chair, his actions froze, leaving him in a half – squatted form.
To match Feng Shufen's dark glares, he quickly put on a cheering smile on himself as he said with a soft chuckle of hesitation, "Hehe … Shufen! Your friend has come to greet you, aren't you happy to see me here?"
Shufen did not say anything but the darkness in his gaze was saying it all. Jutting his jaws up a little, he gulped down the fear in which he was getting shrouded. "Aye … Shufen, I know I again forgot the code of respectful manners before entering your office, but do you have to be so stingy about it? After all, I am still your most loyal confidant. You can let it go one more time. And from next time I will make sure that I come in after giving a knock at your door, okay?"
He said as he winked and looped his fingers to put on an okay sign for him.
Feng Shufen stared at him grimly for a few seconds but did not say a word. He was not in any mood to banter with his silly jokes. Retrieving his attention back, his eyes again looked back on the bunch of papers.
Qi Shuai felt relieved. Though he was scared, he knew at the very most his friend would only dump away his one-month hard-worked salary to waste or would grave him alive with tons of extra work. So, he did not back down from taking such fierceness.
"Gao Fan, now why are you still there as a block of a log? Come on, come on, start the report already. We do not have the whole day to waste around. Our nice Sister – in – law should always be our priority and the matters related to her should not be held back even if you see your President Feng in his worst mood".
Qi Shuai said to the secretary but his eyes were continuously looking sideways to keep a check on his friend's expression. So that if the terror seems coming, he could defend himself on time and could save the world from the greater damage.
Gao Fan nodded as he came forward with the tab. Looking at his boss, he said all calmly with full politeness, bowing his head with some guilt. "President Feng, I apologize on behalf of our men. They failed to keep your orders. I have made sure to detain them for good."
"Today because of their incompetence, Madam has to again encounter her mother early in the morning. Though the situation remained all under control, we still cannot deny our incompetence." He said really getting furious on himself. Then pausing for a second, he added, "And also the Butler Cao along with some bodyguards has visited Little Carnations today".
"Whoa! Our Sister – in – law is so great! Look even the people from the Royal family are so impressed by her. Thanks to the Heavens, the bratty Crown Prince is much younger than her or else I fear that our Sister – in – law would have been coveted by them and …". Qi Shuai commented from the side and before he could even put an end to his words, the dark glare returned on him, making him push the remaining words back inside his throat.
That fierce gaze of him was promising him a torturous kill and Qi Shuai very well knew whose execution it was planning for. Coughing a little, he said, "Hehe … Shufen, you are getting me wrong. Like every word has got some synonyms whose meanings sometimes vary in different situations, my words of thoughts are also the same. I am just saying that Sister – in – law is all safe by your side. No man will ever be able to covet her."
"…" the man still did not say anything. If not his dark aura around, anyone would have just thought him to be practising the lessons on calmness for seeking peace in his life. But both the people around him and the world know him better.
Qi Shuai felt if any other second more of his friend's glare remained on him, then he would surely be dead. So immediately looking at Gao Fan, he said in a deliberate pitiful expression with a Shakespearean tone on his lips.
"Friend, Secretary Gao, The Unbreakable
Sword, lend me your efforts;
I have come to help President Feng, not to bury myself."
Understanding the meaning behind those words, Gao Fan instantly nodded as he stared back at his President Feng. "Boss, here we have the whole clip from the morning, just in case if you wanted to see".
"Do you still have to ask that, Gao Fan? Where is your useful brain? It's related to Xiao Xue, without any doubt our President Feng will want to see it. Just connect it to the screen and play it" Qi Shuai said, planning to get an escape from the Devil's clutches.
Gao Fan just shook his head internally at the man's unique antics. One moment, he was there begging the whole world and Heavens to save him and once he found the way to escape, he was blaming him for not having any useful brain. How great was he!
He remained still at his place while comprehending Qi Shuai in his thoughts but then suddenly a cold, dark voice snapped him back from his trance.
"Gao Fan, play the clip!"
"Yes, President Feng!" Instantly nodding his head to the orders, he went forward to connect the professional tab with the screen.
